I want to attend Georgetown University and I am wondering?
I am a freshman in highschool, at a small private all girls school. I take all honors classes possible, and I am getting A and A- in all but Honors Biology...which I will probably get a C+ in, but i currently have a B-. I play volleyball, I am a camp counselor at the Zoo for 4 weeks each summer, I play french horn, and i know how to play piano. I am in jazz band and I should graduate high school with about 8 AP classes.
I may transfer to a big coed high school with 350 students in a grade, and I am wondering if this will affect my college applications.
I know it is only freshman year, but I truly wish to go to Georgetown, my dad went there. I know people on the Board, if that helps too?
So, after hearing a little about me, what would you change to help me get into Georgetown? I know it is still 3 years away.

If your father went to Georgetown, and you make application to Georgetown, you become a legacy to the university. Knowing someone of influence will also be helpful as well. But make no mistake, you will have to have respectable scores on the SAT or ACT or both. You also will have to graduate from a rigorous academic high school, and you will have to write well. I can't offer congratulations, however, it will be up to you. Good luck.
